preferences are on weird pre-2002 stuff. bonus points if it doesn't hate me and want me to die. although I can't stop you from recommending me call of duty modern warfare. or half life 2. I'm really not picky though

I'm wishlisting for sure, but I wanna hold off on 20+ dollar games until I'm more settled into the new apartment. this is not a problem for any triple a game though. or for any game released before modern drm. because I own all of them physically 😌
Let's see... not counting immersive sims, horror games, mods, or expansion packs... Doom, Doom II, Quake, Quake II, Half-Life, Halo, Unreal Tournament, Metroid Prime, F.E.A.R, Half-Life 2, Left 4 Dead, DUSK, Titanfall 2, Black Mesa, Doom 2016, Doom Eternal, uhhhhh
If you're a bit of a sicko: Cruelty Squad, Blood, S.T.A.L.K.E.R, Amid Evil, Sin, Kingpin, Devil Daggers, Gunmetal, Jedi Knight Dark Forces II, EYE: Divine Cybermancy, Betrayer, Post Void, HROT, G String, Receiver...
god, hang on, I have more somewhere. I'm going to forget something super obvious and end up kicking myself here
EDIT: OKAY I JUST SAW THE POST ABOUT HL2 OOPS
I am absolutely in the sicko category, cruelty squad and system shock are some of my favorite games and hrot and devil daggers are loads of fun, eyeing everything else on that part of the list for sure
also re: your edit you're 100% all good lol I'm just a weirdo that's been holding a grudge against the game for representing the passage of time
nah, I feel it lmao. I love those games, but it's so easy to see the through-line from them to the modern prestige cinematic blockbuster design space

if you were more thru the trekwatch, I would've recommended Elite Force (also Raven!)
does Descent count? I swear there was a spiritual successor on steam too but I can't find it anymore...
descent very much counts and is at the top of my list but I need to get my hands on a flight stick to play that one proper. I know abyss has one I can probably use but I don't know where it is at present 😔
you gotta try chasm the rift !!!!!!!!!! fun lil slavjank grimecore fps about time aliens n shit ^_^ it has a dismemberment system for the enemies which is rad as fuck for a game from 1997 !! also i don’t rlly remember the specifics but it does some evil shit with how it handles 3d i.e. in-level verticality is handled kinda like it is in rott ? i haven’t played it in forever so i may be misremembering but it is very silly
